I bought it in January 2022, as a "plug" for a subsequent upgrade to 5800x-5900x. Before that, there was a Core i7 4790k running at a frequency of 4.5 (could have been 4.6) GHz across all cores. I am familiar with the Ryzen 7 1800x - I built a computer for my brother at one time. The performance of the Ryzen 7 1800x with all the boosts and the "Maximum Performance" profile in Windows was not amazing, but for now my brother has enough of it. I bought the 2700x as a stand-in, knowing it wasn't far off the 1800s in terms of performance. Yes, at 1800x and 2700x the smoothness of operation became higher than at 4790k@4.5GHz, where jerks and jerks were sometimes noticeable. 4K video spins at 2700x nicer. The performance difference between 2700x and 4790k I quickly noticed in Nikon and Canon RAW converters. More time is spent on processing photos, but in general, the work goes more smoothly, without jerking. I will change the processor to 5800x-5900x, because I need a high speed of photo processing. We managed to get the 2700x to work at 42022 GHz on all cores, at this frequency it is already moving more and more cheerfully, although the temperatures and voltage are already high. I installed Thermalright Silver Arrow 130, it's enough, but in the summer I'll have to think about Thermalright Silver Arrow T8 or something more powerful. Such a moment - there is such an old SuperPi program as a dinosaur. It shows well the performance of the memory subsystem and the performance per 1 core (it cannot parallelize), so judging by it, one i7 4790K @ 4.6 GHz core is about 25% faster than a single Ryzen 2700x @ 42022 GHz core. An article was published on ixbt a month ago - "Testing Intel Core i7-6800K, i7-6850K and i7-6900K processors for LGA2022-3 in comparison with modern AMD and Intel models". There, the 2700x (without boosts and disabled auto-overclocking) turned out to be approximately on a par with the Core i7 6900K everywhere except for games. He lost in games.
